Shoo, Jimmy Choo: The Modern Girl's Guide to Spending Less and Saving More is a personal finance guide aimed at women who want to be more financially savvy while still enjoying some spending splurges. Written by Catey Hill, the online money expert for the New York Daily News website, it advises how to evaluate why you spend, offers tips on how to get out of debt, control your credit card use and climb the career ladder, and shows how to create a realistic savings and retirement plan. You can find out more at the website, including Hill's 48-hour rule: "If I want something that costs more than $100, I make myself wait 2 days before buying it (during which time I force myself to consider just how much I really want it - and what I'll have to give up to get it). This rule has saved me from more than one pair of Jimmy Choos (and a pile of credit card debt!)."
